  1. A Cartoleria (stationery and tobacco store) in #Pietrasanta #Tuscany #Italy with probably hand-drawn signage lettering, cut from wood, painted white and mounted on dark painted background board. #vintage #signage #typography

  3. Access at Own Risk

    The rain was falling steadily as I photographed this sign on the Sheep’s Head peninsula. Curious about the sign, I looked up The Anchorage and found this for sale page saying it was recently sold, but an archive.org copy from 2019 shows the seller was looking for €69...

    Curious about the sign, I looked up The Anchorage and found this for sale page saying it was recently sold, but an archive.org copy from 2019 shows the seller was looking for €695,000 back then.

  5. In early 2007 when I was in San Francisco to cover Macworld 2007, we rented a car and visited the Mothership in Cupertino.

    After our tour of 1 Infinite Loop, I sought out the restroom and found it, marked with this sign that I photographed.

    It stunned me and has sat restless in my mind these 20 years. How can this be the Apple HQ men's bathroom sign??

    Edit: It's about the text centering.

  8. Animal friendly infrastructure - Road ecology

    "Some 40 million miles of roadways encircle the earth, yet we tend to regard them only as infrastructure for human convenience. While roads are so ubiquitous they’re practically invisible to us, wild animals experience them as entirely alien forces of death and disruption. , the harms of highways extend far beyond roadkill. "

  11. Biodiversity under the wheels near Repton

    "ANGELA Wallace is one of many people upset about the number of koalas being killed on local roads....Little has been done to mitigate these deaths, with another koala recently killed near Repton. “No wonder our iconic koala (dunggirr) is endangered with our roads as ‘killing zones’, deforestation [causing a] loss of habitat, and them trying to survive extreme weather events such as fires and floods.”

    "She pointed out that where the koala died, the wildlife fence nearby was thickly overgrown with lantana and a nearby underpass was almost impenetrable due to a mass of lantana."

    If an injured, sick or orphaned native animal is found, WIRES can be contacted on 1300 094 737.

  12. Wrapping up at Pilchuck and bouncing around Tacoma, Seattle for a day or two. Here is that 22mm borosilicate star I made. Brian Gillespie the Rhino torch maker got it at the auction party for scholarships an stuff.

    I also made that eclipse and a purple an pink hand pulled phosphor coated color test.

    The thick borosilicate is interesting... Makes me wanna get some of those oxygenated torches.

  13. Time is running out.

    Bring #cyberAttack awareness of #BigTech to the streets (and make friends)…

    Suggestions:

    a) print out #fediverse flyers and give them to people you see or meet on your commutes (break the ice by asking them, "Hello, just wondering how tired you might be of the #algorithms dictating what you can see and say online.") (see # fediFlyer),

    b) get some #coreflute (ie. durable plastic #signs) from a #signage shop, and…
